medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I am helping a friend with a Latin document of the 17th century. It
cites Gregory the Great as calling images "libri idiotarum," with a
reference to a letter to Serenus of Marseille. I checked the letter, &
the wording is not the same. The meaning matches, but the expression is
not there. I did the inevitable Google search & found a lot of
references to Gregory using the term. Has anyone run into a use of the
term between Gregory's time & the 17th century?
